from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can EditWhite hot chocolate is a delicious variant of the usual hot chocolate.

This wonderful taste transfers well to a hot drink. Try it on a cold and wintry day to build some cheer. This will serve one. Double it for a shared treat.
Ingredients
- 1 cup milk, warmed (dairy or other kind of preferred milk)
- 40g white chocolate - chopped or round discs (try to buy good quality white chocolate, as this will be less waxy and over-sugared––European or European inspired brands are often best)
Steps
- Put the chocolate into a small saucepan over low to medium heat.
- Heat the chocolate gently until it becomes warm and only just starts melting. Don't let it melt in the pan. Remove from the heat as it starts to melt.

Tips
- If you're not sure about the quality of the white chocolate, ask the retailer if it is of connoisseur quality. If the retailer doesn't know, they don't know chocolate!
- Sprinkle garnishes over the top if wished. Such things as colored sugar, dark chocolate flakes or ground cinnamon or nutmeg are good choices.
- It's a good idea to serve with the stirring teaspoon in case there is any delicious chocolate to retrieve from the bottom at the end of the drink.
Warnings
- The taste quality of this drink can vary considerably depending on the quality of the chocolate. Be sure to use a white chocolate that you enjoy eating.
